In case it seems like all I do is drink....


There is like one tiny swig of the Caol Ila left. No offense to the distiller, but I didn''t like this scotch at all. I've noticed it recently popping up in bars...its like the GM fleet cars of whisky. So the bushes in my backyard might enjoy that last swig.
BenRiach is my next bottle. Supposedly finished in tawny port kegs with an amazing finish. Jury's out till I guzzle it down...

Oh I shed a tear as I sipped down the last of the Longmorn. This was quite simply a fantastic scotch, second (or third) only to JW Blue and Aberlour 18.
On a seperate but related note, Northwestern published an updated schedule for football and times are starting to fill in for the games. The best road trip of the year looks like Minnesota which is a blast of a party town (they have scotch there) and the stadium is walking distance from the downtown district.
